Itinerary
Day 1: Lavrio to Kea
The thrill of boarding your private yacht at 15:15 at Lavrio port and setting sail toward Kea sets a perfect start to your journey. As you cruise through the sparkling waters of the Aegean, excitement builds with the stunning views. Upon arrival in Kea, you’ll have the chance to explore the island’s charming village, followed by a delightful dinner at a local taverna, where authentic Greek flavors and warm hospitality welcome you to the heart of the islands.
Day 2: Kea to Kythnos
For those seeking a refreshing start, a morning run (if you wish) along Kea’s serene coastline is an invigorating way to prepare for the day ahead. Afterward, set sail once again, stopping to swim in the ancient bay near Tetrapolis, where history and natural beauty intertwine. As you sail toward Kythnos, your skipper will teach you the basics of sailing, making this leg both educational and exciting. End the day soaking in Kythnos’ famous warm springs before enjoying a seafront dinner, easing into the relaxed rhythm of island life.
Day 3: Kythnos to Serifos
Start your day with some morning stretching on Loutra Beach, where you’ll face the rising sun over the Aegean. The sail to Serifos provides another opportunity to practice sailing under the guidance of your skipper. Upon arriving at Serifos, spend the afternoon paddleboarding in a secluded bay or simply relaxing onboard, fully immersed in the peaceful atmosphere. A team-prepared dinner under the stars will bring the day to a gentle, restful close.
Day 4: Serifos to Kythnos
Take the morning to explore the picturesque Chora of Serifos, where vibrant bougainvillea lines the whitewashed streets. Discover the breathtaking views from the Ag. Konstantinos chapel, or simply relax at the peaceful Livadi and Livadaki beaches. A well deserved easy afternoon on sandy beaches and around great tavernas. Evening sail back to Kythnos visiting its iconic Apokrousi and Kolona beaches nearby. With a glass of wine in hand, enjoy the golden hues of the setting sun on the water, a perfect ending to an active and fulfilling day with a dinner on board.
Day 5: Kythnos to Lavrio
As your journey draws to a close, enjoy one last morning swim or paddle boarding session in the calm waters of Kythnos. The sail back to Lavrio is a time to savor the final moments, reflecting the rich experiences, and the sense of accomplishment that comes from exploring both the sea and the islands. Checkout is planned to happen usually around 12:00, latest on 13:00.
This remarkable voyage blends active exploration of hidden gems, historical discovery, relaxation, and the pure joy of being out on the open sea, offering an unforgettable experience that captures the true spirit of the Aegean islands.
How to get to Syros
- By plane from Athens International Airport (you can book at airtickets24.com). Usual airfare is less than 100e/person if you book early.
- By ferry from Piraeus or Lavrio (you can book at ferryhopper.gr and receive your ticket in your mailbox). Usual ferry ticket price is 45-65e/person. Only some days of the week there is much cheaper Lavrio-Syros connection (18-20e/person) which takes 1-2hrs more.
- By private sea transfer George can arrange this service for your group with a motorboat from Lavrio. Quite pricey but exciting.

The amount is entirely at your discretion. As a guideline:
Shared departures: €7–10 per day, per booked guest
Food and accommodation
Food in Greece is big part of properly experiencing the destination. It is ok if you build up high expectations awaiting your trip.
The traditional local Greek cuisine is based on fresh local vegetables, fruits, salads, beans, rise, meat of different kinds etc and normally no processed food.
What do we eat during the trip?
Usually the groups choose to do provisioning from the local market with fresh fruits, salads, snacks for self-preparing breakfast and light lunches on board.
Dinners take place later in the evening in chosen quality places on land which helps our passengers taste a variety of Greek food.
This is highly recommended and tested routine which will help you to make the most out of the destination.
Yes if you are vegan or gluten intolerant there are plenty of options for you. Yes if you wish to buy your own stuff on board to follow your strict diet or budget this is possible and you are permitted to exclude yourself from the group food kitty.
Usual spendings are approx 30-50€/person for the whole trip’s provisioning and usual dinner cost 25€/person for each dinner.
Final figure depends on the group’s appetite and spending style. Food allowance for the skipper is 40€/day, alternatively he shares meals with group.
What about accomodation on board?
Accommodation on a 50-55ft sailing yacht offers a blend of comfort and practicality. These yachts feature well-designed interiors with private cabins, en-suite bathrooms, and fully equipped galleys, ensuring a luxurious experience at sea. Large windows and hatches provide natural light and panoramic views, while clever use of space offers storage and cozy living areas.
However, it is important to note that living on board cannot be compared to the level of comfort and space we enjoy at home, as yachts are designed for functionality and sailing capabilities.
Physical rating & risks
Naturally the physical rating of sailing trips varies depending on the itinerary and activities involved. The specific trip require moderate physical ability, such as moving around the yacht or handling steps. While no prior experience is typically needed, a basic level of fitness and mobility ensures you can fully enjoy the adventure.
Other multi-active sailing experiences may involve apart from swimming also , Stand Up Paddling and hiking, which can add to the activity level.
Snorkeling is a fun yet high-risk activity that is not recommended for shared departures with participants of differing physical capabilities. Managing diverse safety needs in open water can compromise the group’s overall security and supervision; therefore, participation is permitted strictly at your own risk.
Weather
The sailing season features mostly sunny days, with temperatures ranging from 20°C to 30°C (68°F to 86°F). Winds are typically steady and predictable but vary by location, offering great conditions for sailing enthusiasts of all levels. The season starts mid-March and finishes at the end of November. Peak of the season is mid-July to end of Aug.
From mid June to start of Sep we have north prevailing winds which can be strong for a few days (eg 2-3 days) in a row. These winds are locally known as ‘meltemi’ and are very predictable. We always adjust the itinerary of the trip to maximize the fun and comfort factor for everyone onboard.
